There
has been an increase in the number of thefts from motor vehicles
whilst parked in pub car parks. People are urged not leave
valuables in their vehicles generally, wherever they are. Again,
hiding belongings does not stop the problem as thieves are
normally watching in any case.
Attempted
dog snatching
There have been reports of attempted dog
snatchings in the London and Banstead areas. A vehicle was
seen and is described
as a white Ford Transit van index S62LLK. Please report any

Criminal damage at Old Orchard
Brockham bowls green area by the river
was subject of criminal damage whereby newly planted trees
were snapped and small bonfires started. If any one has any
information on who may be responsible please call PC Wells
on 01306 676351. For
more information..
Quad
bike thefts
Quad
bikes are being stolen in the area and again we advise
people to be extra vigilant. If you require
any assistance
on security matters, please contact PC Bessent on 01306 676823.
Home Security
As
the summer months approach we would like to remind you of
home security, even whilst in the house. There were a number
of thefts from houses whilst people were inside them during
these months last year. This was mainly due to doors being
left open and opportunist thieves entering to steal belongings.
Please could you also ensure that any outbuildings and sheds
are kept secured. This advice follows a number of thefts of
tools and building materials that have occurred of late in
the area. The amount of thefts of garden machinery and tools
also rises during this period.
Congestion
at Brockham School
There has been marked improvement to the situation
outside Brockham School and I thank you for your co-operation.
However there are still those who do not/will not comply with
my request. It should always be borne in mind that the safety
of all is paramount at all times please.
Blonde
woman calls at homes
We
have received several reports of a blonde haired female knocking
on doors in the area asking for money to get home or has locked
herself out and needs money to get to Epsom and such like.
This
is a ploy to get people to give her money and anyone who
is approached by this female is asked not to give her money
and
report it to police on 0845 125 2222 straight away please.
She
knocks on peoples doors usually in the evenings but it
can and has occurred at any time.
